Dalvin Cook A Risky RB Option In Week 7
6 years agoMinnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook (hamstring) has been a full participant in practice to start the week, which makes it seem likely that he will suit up for Week 7 against the New York Jets. The issue for fantasy owners is that Cook will probably be on a snap count and cede carries to fellow RB Latavius Murray. Another deterrent for Cook's fantasy outlook is the fact that the Jets have been fairly stout against the run this season. Although the Vikings were able to run wild last week, that was against the abysmal run defense of the Arizona Cardinals. Fantasy owners should consider sitting Cook for this week if they have a suitable replacement. His injury, matchup, and situation make it probable that he could be a fantasy bust in Week 7.
